The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Fehlan]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
After bouncing between hardcore pk-type muds and coddling newbie-
types, I randomly stumbled upon Alter Aeon. As is my wont, I read
through their homepage, from the creator's advertising, to the
players' writings, and thought it to be interesting. I made a test
character to give it a go.
I was captivated from the beginning. The initial 'newbie training'
sequence gets you off to a rolling start, and mobs in plenty, easily
within the skills of these new characters. An extensive library of
help files, easily navigable, and plainly written. An in-depth quest
system, with titled deeds to be accomplishment whether your desire
be pure and noble or self-serving and evil. Active and relaxed
roleplaying setting, friendly players in general, and many who give
time and aide to newbies just beginning. Fully active auctioning
system, that's easy to use, and a banking system just as simple.
And myself, being a builder, stand to show the continued growth,
all the new areas yet to be found in the world, new challeneges to
be met, more fame and renown to be won. The creators and
administration are continuously active and INTERactive, which is a
wonderful change from the usual I've known. The faiths of these gods
hold rewards for their followers.
This is indeed the most well-rounded and complete mud I have yet to
find. Even the playerkilling aspects are well-handled, and well
-coded.
